Blogging is awesome!
You share your passions, build a community, and maybe even make a few $100s.
But what's the price tag?
It can be totally free, or it can cost a bunch depending on what you want.
Free Blog? You Got It
There are free blogging platforms like Blogger that give you a free domain name and hosting.
Think of it as your own space in a rented house (the platform).
It works perfectly if you're just starting or don't mind a URL like mine here: "https://erickouassi.blogspot.com".
Free Isn't Always Fancy
Free platforms have limitations. You can't customize them much, so they might not exactly match your dream blog design.
How Much Did My Blog Cost? ($5!)
See my domain name? I use Blogger.
I bought a cool theme for around $5 (not gonna lie, it rocks) and tweaked it to my style.
But that doesn't include the time I spent customizing it, which can take a while.
The Cost? Up to You
There's no one-size-fits-all price for blogs.
To get an idea, get quotes from a few web hosting providers and average them out.
Don't rely on just one estimate!
